I'm sure a lot of people have already seen this, but thought I'd post it for those that haven't:
Optimus Keyboard (http://www.artlebedev.com/portfolio/optimus/)
Just think, instead of having to remember what keys do what, you could look down & see Splinters' lovely icons shining up at you. :D
Roman: If you're reading this, perhaps you could work out some sort of deal with them, as it looks like the perfect companion to tS7. |

Thats cool, I wouldn't mind one of those. Now I wonder how durable it is, I am kinda rough on keyboards. |

Thats very cool. When there's a wireless version with accompanying mouse, I'm all over it. |

It'll probably never come to be, although it's a great idea - my guess is it will cost more to produce than what it will be able to sell for. |

I find I tend to go through keyboards a bit quicker than I ought to as well. Though at the mo I'm using a pre-W95 keyboard which I've had for quite a while, though most of the function keys would fall off if I tipped it upside down. :o
Thats very cool. When there's a wireless version with accompanying mouse, I'm all over it. I don't think there will be. Besides, I already have the best mouse money can buy . :D Wireless would be nice, but you'd have to wonder how long the batteries last. I know OLED displays aren't [i]that power hungry, but when you've got over 100 of them....
It'll probably never come to be, although it's a great idea - my guess is it will cost more to produce than what it will be able to sell for.Well, it says on their site that they'll be making an announcement on the 1st of Feb [Wednesday], so we should find out pretty soon. From an article I read about it, initial price is supposed to be about US$200. Now that may sound a bit steep, but when you consider that with the exchange rate [I'm in the UK] it means it'll only cost me about £114 plus shipping [If it weren't for the exchange rate being what it is I wouldn't have been able to afford my proTeam membership :D ]. |

I saw this in a report during CES. Great concept.
My personal fav is: http://www.kinesis-ergo.com/images/kb_adv-pro_met720x471.jpg
I have 3: one for the house, one for work, and one that the wife used to use when she worked which is now a backup.

I know some people like split keyboards, but I'm not keen on them myself. |

LOL, if that split keyboard had a joystick in the middle or a type of game pad, I would buy several!. |
